Abstract: A method for time-marking sedimentation processes where two or more fractions in a sample containing liquid are to be separated entirely or partially by their specific weights in a tube or corresponding means. According to the invention, a plug (2) of a hydrophilic plastic substance in brought into contact with the sample. The plug (2) has original dimensions smaller than the inner diameter of the tube (1) and has a specific weight lying between the specific weights of the said fractions. The plug further is adjusted with respect to its dimensions and/or substance so as to attain a swelling degree sufficient for the plug to jam in the tube (1), to mark the separation line between the fractions (3, 4) after a predetermined period. Thereafter the position of the plug (2) in the tube is read. 
<??>The method is particularly advantageous in medical connections, especially at the determination of the sedimentation reaction of the blood. Hereby blood corpuscles (3) are separated from plasma (4) by the method. 
<??>The invention comprises also a device for carrying out the method.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a power-actuated chuck having a plurality of clamping jaws which are radially guided in a chuck body and are connected, via wedge receivers which extend at an angle to the axis of the chuck and wedge pieces extending into said wedge receivers, to an adjustment member which is axially displaceable in the chuck body and whose operating stroke is limited by form-locking and can be lengthened by turning a ring mounted coaxial to the chuck axis in the chuck body in order to disengage the clamping jaws from the adjustment member. In order to be able to disengage the clamping jaws from the adjustment member by an additional stroke of the latter without additional transmission elements being necessary for this, the ring is developed as a synchronizing ring (6) for controlling at least two stop pins (7) which are mounted in the chuck body (1) and are displaceable into the path of movement of the adjustment member as stops limiting the operating stroke (A) of the adjustment member (4).

Abstract: In this drive control the regulating circuits for the rotational speed of a drive motor and of an eddy current brake are matched in their static and in their dynamic behavior so that a common regulator may be used for both regulating circuits. The matching is achieved by interposing a current regulation circuit for regulating the excitation current of the eddy current brake to the rotational speed regulating circuit. The output of the common regulator is supplied via a linearization member as a reference value to a regulator in the current regulation circuit during the deceleration phase. During the acceleration phase the output of the common regulator is supplied to a matching element matching the variation of the torque to the variation of the torque during the deceleration phase with respect to time. The output of the matching element is connected to the control member of the drive motor via a linearization member. By means of the linearization members the characteristics of a d.c.-shunt motor are approximately achievable. A distance regulating circuit is superposed on the rotational speed regulating circuit. The distance reference value is derived from jerk and acceleration magnitudes during the acceleration phase as well as during the deceleration phase, so that an optimum travel curve is achievable.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for determining the saturation temperature of a solution. In an optical measurement vessel, the temperature of a sample of the solution is gradually decreased until crystals are formed and subsequently gradually increased until the crystals dissolve. The temperature is measured continuously and the formation and dissolving of the crystals is detected optically by means of a beam of polarised light which is transmitted through the measuring vessel, and passed through an analyzer the direction of polarisation of which is normal to that of the beam of light, and detected by a photodetector behind the analysator. Only when a small amount of optically active crystals is present in the solution, in which the direction of polarisation of the light is rotated, the photodetector measures a certain light intensity. The moment the last crystals, upon heating, dissolve is detected by the drop of the measured light intensity to a minimum value. The temperature of the solution at that moment is the saturation temperature of the solution. 
<??>Preferably the beam of polarized light is generated by means of a laser. For monitoring the transmitted beam, a beam splitter is preferably mounted in front of the analyzer, which casts part of the transmitted light onto a second photodetector.
